Gold Bars

Craig grew up eating these at school in Albuquerque.  A friend shared the recipe on Facebook and the rest is history!

2 cups crunchy peanut butter

2 cups Rice Krispies

2 cups powdered sugar

4 tablespoons melted butter

2 tablespoons light corn syrup

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips (melted)

Mix peanut butter, Rice Krispies, powdered sugar, melted butter, and light corn syrup until well blended.  Press mixture evenly into a 9 x 13 inch pan that has been lined with plastic wrap or lightly oiled.  Melt chocolate in a double broiler.  Spread evenly over mixture in the pan.  Chill in the fridge until set, not hard.  Cut into desired servings and then return the pan to the fridge to harden completely.  Remove from pan and store in an air tight container in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
